A simple, but nice decorative look in stocking stitch can be achieved by using slip stitches. In this pattern I have worked the slip stitches in 2 out of the 6 rows. In one row the stitches are slipped purlwise, keeping the yarn in front and in the other, the stitches are slipped knitwise with the yarn in the back. It's quick and easy to do. I worked this with an odd number of stitches.
